Comparison of several common T-shirt printing techniques Printing refers to the technical process of printing patterns on textile fabrics. According to the pattern of printed fabric, it can be divided into cloth printing, cutting print and garment printing. Cloth printing refers to the cutting of the whole cloth in the picture. The cut print is to cut out the garment of the garment that has not been sewn before. Ready-to-wear prints are made after the garments are sewn. Used for T-shirt printing, mainly in cutting prints and ready-to-wear prints. According to the materials and methods used in printing, the main can be divided into: water slurry printing, rubber paste printing, ink printing and hot stamping, heat transfer printing, there is a special is not commonly used to dye, wax dyeing, etc. Can also be attributed to the range of printing technology. The following is an analysis of various printing techniques and their advantages and disadvantages. Water plasma printing: is the most early application of printing technology. The materials used for printing patterns are water-based sizing, similar to pigments or dyes used in drawing. Through the study of the technology of screen printing process, so as to make a design of slurry can through to the fabric, and no pattern cannot penetrate, this pattern can be printed on the fabric. It is characterized by only one color at a time. If you want to print the second color, you have to wait until the previous color is dry. Printing is required; You can't print color patterns in four colors, and you can't print light patterns on dark fabrics. The advantage is that the fabric breathes well after printing, but because of the printing, the clothes will be hard. This method is more used for cloth printing. Gelatine printing: basic process and water slurry printing, only used materials are dried and solidified on the fabric of glue pigment. Features: one color can be printed at one time, and the second color must wait until the front color is dry. Printing is required; The color pattern can not be printed in four colors. Because glue is not transparent, can also be in dark fabrics printing light color pattern; The air permeability is poor; The pattern is easy to fall off, especially when used in chemical fiber fabrics. The most common printed t-shirts in the market are made of gelatine printing. Printing ink: also known as hot - solid printing ink. It USES chemical ink as the printing material and needs high temperature drying to solidify the ink to the fabric. Printing is required; The color pattern can be printed in a four-color collision screen, and the color pattern can be printed on a dark fabric with a white background. Same as the gelatine printing, the air permeability is poor; The pattern is easy to fall off, especially when used in chemical fiber fabrics. Some of the more cool t-shirts seen in the market are prints of inks. Hot stamping and transfer printing: a technique developed late in the day. It USES an intermediate medium (e.g., transfer paper), the pattern printing first in accordance with special coating on the transfer paper, then on the pressure and the heat transfer paper pattern transfer to fabric. The advantage of this is that the production process of printing is simplified, and the production of the pattern is the new industry, which facilitates the distribution of patterns. Its actual effect is similar to the printing of ink, only its pattern precision is higher. A perm or T-shirt transfer paper is the representative of this type. |
